My initial reaction was one of disappointment. How could an event as prestigious and as highly viewed as the superbowl halftime show allow such a light weight to grace their sacred stage. Blasphemous! I mean what were they thinking...we deserve better than that! I mean what has Tom Petty ever given us except for "Free Fallin" and "Last Dance with Mary Jane". Oh yeah and "Runnin Down a Dream" and "You Don't Know How It Feels"......and I also like "Refugee" and "Don't Come Around Here No More"! Wait a minute...Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers have a pretty good body of work...yeah I kinda like them. So, why the initial shock? Then I remembered that after last years half time show <em>anybody</em> would be a disappointment.<br /><br />Last years show featured Prince and it was by far the greatest half time show the superbowl has ever or will ever see. In the pouring rain Prince performed an electrifying, funky, guitar driven set that featured tunes from Jimi Hendrix and the Foo Fighters as well as some of his signature classics. It was absolutely mesmerizing. And it will never be topped or repeated.<br /><a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/R1iCLEFHm3I/AAAAAAAAAD0/S1BQpvl7yVk/s1600-h/princehalftime.jpg"></a><br />So, Tom when superbowl sunday rolls around and I'm less than enthused about your performance...please don't be offended...it's just that this year especially, you my friend are going to be the proverbial sacrificial lamb that prepares us for all the future mediocrity.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/R1iCLEFHm3I/AAAAAAAAAD0/S1BQpvl7yVk/s1600-h/princehalftime.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5141002101228804978" style="FLOAT: left;

For the first time in my five year marriage we actually hosted the family. Everything turned out better than expected...so much so that it has caused me to do some post-Thanksgiving reflection on what I am <em>really </em>thankful for.<br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5136523459580947250" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/R0iY3zzIazI/AAAAAAAAABs/1nF72qqvXr0/s320/totem+pole.JPG" border="0" /><br /><em><span style="color:#99ffff;">First Things First - Lori G.</span></em><br /><br />When I said my wedding vows at sunset on the island of Maui in April of '02, I had no idea what a wonderful adventure I was embarking on. I'm thankful for every day I have had with a person who has taken everything that I am and has given me everything that she is. Life before Maui seems like a pale shadow of real life...life since Maui has afforded me daily miracles of the beauty of knowing intimately who a person is...body, spirit and soul.<br /><div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><br /><a href="http://www.box.net/index.php?rm=box_v2_download_shared_file&blog&file_id=f_111503387" target="_blank">02 David Axlerod - Holy Thursday.mp3</a><br /><object id="player_v04" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=" height="52" width="364" align="middle" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"><param name="_cx" value="9631"><param name="_cy" value="1376"><param name="FlashVars" value=""><param name="Movie" value="http://www.box.net/mp3player/player.swf?playlistURL=http://www.box.net/index.php?rm=box_v2_mp3_player_shared%26_playlist%26node=f_111503387"><param name="Src" value="http://www.box.net/mp3player/player.swf?playlistURL=http://www.box.net/index.php?rm=box_v2_mp3_player_shared%26_playlist%26node=f_111503387"><param name="WMode" value="Transparent"><param name="Play" value="0"><param name="Loop" value="-1"><param name="Quality" value="High"><param name="SAlign" value=""><param name="Menu" value="0"><param name="Base" value=""><param name="AllowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain"><param name="Scale" value="ShowAll"><param name="DeviceFont" value="0"><param name="EmbedMovie" value="0"><param name="BGColor" value="FFFFFF"><param name="SWRemote" value=""><param name="MovieData" value=""><param name="SeamlessTabbing" value="1"><param name="Profile" value="0"><param name="ProfileAddress" value=""><param name="ProfilePort" value="0"><param name="AllowNetworking" value="all"><param name="AllowFullScreen" value="false"><br /><embed pluginspage="'http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer'" type="'application/x-shockwave-flash'" allowscriptaccess="'sameDomain'" align="'middle'" name="'player_v04'" height="'52'" width="'364'" bgcolor="'#ffffff'" quality="'high'" src="'http://www.box.net/mp3player/player.swf?playlistURL=" rm="box_v2_mp3_player_shared%26_playlist%26node=" wmode="'transparent'/"></embed></object></p></div>Curthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16496269693216222304noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28448841306507200.post-19761853451517653102007-11-12T14:13:00.000-05:002007-11-12T23:00:56.535-05:00Little Dragon - "Twice" mp3<div align="left"><a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/RzSy_5tM1iI/AAAAAAAAAAo/qMyfpNUk2jY/s1600-h/LittleDragon.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5130922686373746210" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/RzSy_5tM1iI/AAAAAAAAAAo/qMyfpNUk2jY/s320/LittleDragon.jpg" border="0" /></a> Kyle at Aurgasm recently posted this gem for your listening pleasure. The following is his description of Little Dragon.</div><br /><p align="left"><em>"If a few piano keys can give way to glitchy sounds swirled around to accompany a soulful, jazzy, baseline bop, then strutted with an array of atmospheric keyboards, hi-hats, and 80's movie charm, where a melodically luscious, poignant voice plays freely atop a heartbeat's skyline, then you would be listening to Little Dragon."</em> </p><br /><p align="left">Little Dragon features vocalist Yukimi Nagano and her close high school friends from Sweden. According to her bio she was <em>born and raised in Gothenburg, Sweden to a Japanese father and an American mother, Yukimi says, 'I grew up listening to American folk because of my Mom, but I have always had an affinity for R'n'B'".</em></p><br /><p align="left">The selection above is breathtaking in its simplicity. Simple yet profound minor key piano and haunting strings...but its the vocals that cause you to stop and take notice.</p><br /><p align="left">Visit Little Dragon at <a href="http://www.little-dragon.se/">www.little-dragon.se/</a> or <a href="http://www.myspace.com/yourlittledragon">www.myspace.com/yourlittledragon</a> </p><p align="left"> </p>Curthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16496269693216222304noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28448841306507200.post-18704790012040120962007-11-09T17:30:00.000-05:002007-11-25T10:19:31.420-05:00Shelly Bhushan - "Beautiful Me" mp3<a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/RzTgSptM1jI/AAAAAAAAAAw/L1_-TmzqlAE/s1600-h/Picking+Daises.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5130972486519543346" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/RzTgSptM1jI/AAAAAAAAAAw/L1_-TmzqlAE/s320/Picking+Daises.jpg" border="0" /></a> Aretha Franklin, Joss Stone, Alanis Morrisette, Bonnie Raitt, even Stevie Wonder....Shelly Bhushan has been compared to all these great artists and yet it's still difficult to pigeon hole her into any one musical style or genre. Born and raised in Texas one can definitely hear the Texas blues undertones in her soulful voice...but to call her a blues or soul singer does not begin to touch the depth and richness in her songwriting and singing. On September 20th she released her debut album titled <em>"Picking Daisies".</em> The song posted above "Beautiful Me" is a great example of what Shelly means when she says that <em>"...one can</em> <em>be</em> <em>soulful and not be trite, and/or be a singer/songwriter without being boring and straight."</em><br /><p>Visit Shelly at <a href="http://www.shellybhushan.com/">www.shellybhushan.com/</a> or <a href="http://www.myspace.com/shellybhushan">www.myspace.com/shellybhushan</a>. </p>Curthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16496269693216222304noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28448841306507200.post-23189276899117172262007-11-06T22:32:00.000-05:002007-11-06T22:58:24.736-05:00Welcome!<a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/RzE2tlLR5rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/ylLaMxlqWks/s1600-h/New+York+"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5129941607253141170" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_3I9AU1dMer8/RzE2tlLR5rI/AAAAAAAAAAM/ylLaMxlqWks/s320/New+York+%2706-10.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Welcome to the <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Bisous Bisous Lounge</span></strong>.
